+# jekyll-before-after
+
+A Jekyll plugin providing a `{% before_after %}` Liquid tag for rendering a polished, accessible drag-to-reveal image comparison slider. Supports horizontal and vertical orientations, overlay labels, responsive images, keyboard navigation, and full CSS custom property theming. Pure vanilla JS — no external dependencies, GitHub Pages compatible.
+
+## Installation
+
+Add to your `Gemfile`:
+
+```ruby
+gem "jekyll-before-after"
+```
+
+Add to `_config.yml`:
+
+```yaml
+plugins:
+  - jekyll-before-after
+```
+
+Copy `_before-after.scss` to your site's CSS directory and import it.
+
+Run `bundle install`.
+
+## Usage
+
+```liquid
+{% before_after
+  before="/images/main-street-2018.jpg"
+  after="/images/main-street-2024.jpg"
+  before_label="2018"
+  after_label="2024"
+%}
+```
+
+### All options
+
+| Option | Default | Description |
+|--------|---------|-------------|
+| `before` | _(required)_ | Path to the "before" image |
+| `after` | _(required)_ | Path to the "after" image |
+| `before_label` | `"Before"` | Label overlaid on the before side |
+| `after_label` | `"After"` | Label overlaid on the after side |
+| `start` | `50` | Initial slider position (0–100) |
+| `orientation` | `horizontal` | `horizontal` or `vertical` |
+| `alt_before` | `""` | Alt text for the before image |
+| `alt_after` | `""` | Alt text for the after image |
+| `srcset_before` | `""` | `srcset` value for responsive before image |
+| `srcset_after` | `""` | `srcset` value for responsive after image |
+| `sizes` | `"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 100vw"` | `sizes` attribute when using srcset |
+
+### Responsive images
+
+Pass `srcset_before` and `srcset_after` to render a `<picture>` element:
+
+```liquid
+{% before_after
+  before="/images/street-before.jpg"
+  after="/images/street-after.jpg"
+  srcset_before="/images/street-before-480.jpg 480w, /images/street-before-960.jpg 960w"
+  srcset_after="/images/street-after-480.jpg 480w, /images/street-after-960.jpg 960w"
+  sizes="(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 80vw"
+%}
+```
+
+### Vertical orientation
+
+```liquid
+{% before_after
+  before="/images/building-2015.jpg"
+  after="/images/building-2025.jpg"
+  orientation=vertical
+  before_label="2015"
+  after_label="2025"
+%}
+```
+
+### Multiple sliders
+
+Multiple sliders on the same page are fully supported. The JavaScript block is emitted only once per page regardless of how many sliders you include.
+
+## Configuration
+
+Set site-wide defaults in `_config.yml`:
+
+```yaml
+before_after:
+  start: 50
+  orientation: horizontal
+  before_label: "Before"
+  after_label: "After"
+```
+
+## Styling
+
+Copy `_before-after.scss` to your project and import it. All visual properties are controlled via CSS custom properties:
+
+| Variable | Default | Description |
+|----------|---------|-------------|
+| `--ba-handle-color` | `#fff` | Handle line and knob color |
+| `--ba-knob-size` | `2.75rem` | Drag knob diameter |
+| `--ba-knob-icon-color` | `#333` | Arrow icon color inside knob |
+| `--ba-line-width` | `2px` | Divider line thickness |
+| `--ba-label-bg` | `rgba(0,0,0,0.55)` | Label background |
+| `--ba-label-color` | `#fff` | Label text color |
+| `--ba-label-radius` | `3px` | Label border radius |
+| `--ba-radius` | `4px` | Container border radius |
+| `--ba-focus-ring` | `rgba(255,255,255,0.8)` | Keyboard focus ring color |
+
+### Example override
+
+```scss
+.before-after {
+  --ba-handle-color: #e67e22;
+  --ba-knob-size: 3rem;
+  --ba-label-bg: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.75);
+}
+```
+
+## Interaction
+
+- **Drag** the handle to reveal
+- **Click** anywhere on the image to jump the slider to that position
+- **Keyboard**: focus the handle and use arrow keys (5% steps; hold Shift for 1% steps)
+- **Touch** and stylus supported via Pointer Events API
+
+## Requirements
+
+- Jekyll >= 3.9
+- Ruby >= 2.7
+
